I'm planning to write a business website.
Nothing crazy at all, just a few pages with pictures and text.
What program would you guys recommend I use?
1 and 1 the domain registrar / hosting service has comes with an online page writing software, is this any good?
Last time I tried to write a webpage it was displayed incorrectly on some browsers / user settings. I want some software that will easily develope a universal site - one that can be viewed in any resolution.
Any one got the knowledge?

1 and 1 looked good to me too, but automan warned about problems and suggested gkg.net.
I use UltraEdit for web design. Coding by hand is definitely the best (only?) way to ensure cross-browser compatibility. Dreamweaver remains another popular option but I think it's way bloated and doesn't really make things any easier.

check out Bluefish if youre running Linux, BSD, *n?x of some sort, or OSX http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/index.html Bluefish is GPL
Quanta is recomended too, also for Linux, BSD, *n?x. http://quanta.kdewebdev.org/ the Quanta part of the site doesnt seem to work at the moment.

NVU is a good wysiwyg editor for *nix
any actual webdesigner will never use such a program, but if you just want formatted text to show up on the web as it does in a wordprocessesor, there you go!

I used Macromedia Dreamweaver.
Thats because I am a "fake" wedesigner and don't know any code.

Nvu is free. Also, to add my two cents, I would not have hosting with your registrar.

I have had luck with Dreamweaver. I started with no experience, but it's an easy program to learn.

just code it straight, it may take a little longer, but you can get EXACTLY what you want, either that or find someone to do it for you.

vim its what the pro's use. At least its what I use and I am a php freelance programmer.
But if you are looking for ease of use Dreamweaver is where its at. This was the best program out there for what you see is what you get html generation last I looked. There used to be a free trial.
